The best speaker you ever heard?

In my opinion, the speaker is by far the most important part of the audio system. After all, it is the only part you hear. OK, the other stuff really matters a lot, but without a great speaker... No go.

I am a bit 'speaker-obsessed' I guess, and now I am wondering: What are the best speakers you have ever heard, and what made them the best?

The Imagine Electrostats.
Like Martin Logan Statements only much more advanced (the transducer foil is made at the Fraunhofer institute in Munich/Germany, by the same guys who make the diamond tweeters for the Avalon Eidolon) and the best news is that the system is only a 3rd of the price of the ML Statement. It is about the price of a Soundlab U1, but look at the Imagine system. Here you definitely have no issues with bass performance, with 4 sub woofers on each side.
